what do u mean by select something from the menu?? i apologize, but i'm new to this.... a few features appear in that window, and i'm assuming to use the "save file as..." selection, but that just creates a .jpg that only opens in Preview.

ok, there should be something that says download linked file as, if not, there is most likely a broken link or something, what happens if you just click on it regular?

it just refreshes the page that the content was on. the only thing that i see when i option click relevant to "download linked file" is "save link as..." or "save image as.."

 

[Macman]

can I have a link to this page?

It's the "essential color" icon i'm trying to use. also, i do thank you for helping me out with all this and my nooB questions.

 

[Macman]

it downloads fine here, what os are you using, and what version of safari?

Downloaded fine for me. Are you sure you've tried just clicking on the "Download (mac)" link?

 

[munkism]

i'm using 10.3.9 and Firefox

 

[munkism]

yeah, when i click on that link, it just reloads the page without placing the .sit file (i'm assuming that's the file format because that's what is displayed in the browser's url space) on my desktop

 

[Macman]

hmm, have you tried emptying FF's cache? or have you tried safari?

 

[Macman]

in firefox, select save link as when you control click. if its not a .sit, rename it to .sit after it downloads.

itunes

i'm in the process of changing a few icons around using candybar, but I can't seem to find where itunes is at. i've been through the system, applications, volumes and app extras tabs looking for it but it's nowhere to be seen. how then do I change the itunes icon?

nevermind, it turns out i'm totally blind.
